Process
Step 1 – Attaching the coarse grit sandpaper, begin by sanding off any finish that might be on the wood. Next, use the finer grit paper to create a smooth surface for the resin.
Step 2 – Get rid of the sawdust with a damp cloth and let your surface dry completely.
Step 3 – Measure out the resin needed using an area calculator, mix and cure the resin in a plastic container. Measurement for Haksons resin is 100ml for 1sq.ft with 1mm thickness.
Step 4 – Once cured, pour your resin on the wood and spread it to the edges using a plastic scraper.
Step 5 – Get rid of all bubbles with the Artist Blow Torch. Cover your surface and 24 hours later it’s ready to use!
